Weekend Writing Warriors #98!

Ho, ho, ho, happy Sunday! :D 'Tis the season to read and write! Now that I'm on holidays I plan to do more of both. As for all of you, here's a pre-Christmas present in the form of another excerpt from Adventures in Online Dating!

First, here's the blurb:After too many failed relationships, too many shots of tequila, and too many not-so-gentle nudges from her best friend, Sydney Montrose joins an online dating site in hopes of finding THE ONE. During her adventures, she crosses paths with a professional gamer who lives with his parents, a sweet and sarcastic parking enforcement officer, a flirty barista, a mystery man, a touchy-feely former felon, and a clown. Which one will she choose? Well, that's all entirely up to you!

After the vote last week, the majority of you wanted Sydney to give Charlie a chance, so here's their date continued....

Sydney and her annoying conscience decided it
was better to write a note before fleeing without a trace—one of those charming
‘it’s not you, it’s me’ varieties. Just as she finished scribbling her thoughts
and feelings on a napkin, the man of the hour stepped out of the washroom and
into the number one spot in her heart. Holy freaking cow. As he strode toward
their table, she quickly tucked the napkin in her purse, sat up a little
straighter, and stuck out her chest a little more.

Charlie
was beaming when he sat down again, a grin broader and more genuine than any
make-up could do justice. His eyes were filled with wonder, like he couldn’t
believe she was still there, and she hated herself for almost running out on
him.

She could see
every adorable freckle on his face now. His smiling lips looked so kissable, and his hair, dear God, his hair—auburn curls that spoke of a touch of devilishness in this delicious do-gooder.
